The Nissan Rogue puts on a new face for the 2014 model year as competition in the compact SUV market continues to get more fierce. The Rogue adds room to its range, offering seven seats and a third row, or ample storage space. The Rogue has smoothed out its bulges for a more tapered, but assertive exterior surface.

What's New for 2014

It’s been five years since the Rogue has been redrawn. A new engine, aerodynamic improvements and new shape have been added to the equation. NissanConnect features apps, blind spot warning, forward collision warning and an around-view monitor with moving object detection.

Choosing Your Nissan Rogue

If you're looking for a bargain price and like the old Rogue, you can still have one. It's now called the Rogue Select and has a base price of only $19,990.

Buyers opting for the all-new Rogue can choose from front-wheel and all-wheel drive at all trim levels. Nissan uses continuously variable transmission (CVT) and a single engine—a 2.5-liter four-cylinder—across the range. It produces 170 horsepower and you can expect 26 mpg city and 33 mpg highway.

The base S starts at $22,490 and comes well-equipped with accessories like air conditioning, Bluetooth, a rearview camera and cruise control. Fatigue-fighting zero gravity seats, also found in the Altima, are standard. The $1,190 Family Package includes optional third-row seating and rear privacy glass.

Stepping up to the $24,230 SV adds features like 17-inch aluminum wheels and automatic climate control. The $940 Family Package, with its third-row seating, is also available. Other options at this level include a $1,320 moonroof and a $1,420 Premium Package with features like navigation, a power liftgate, an around-view camera and a variety of driver assists. If you forgo the third row, you get more storage space via the Divide & Hide cargo system.

The top-of-the-line SL is priced from $28,070. It adds sophistication with upscale items like 18-inch aluminum wheels, navigation, an around-view monitor, leather upholstery, heated front seats, 18-inch wheels, and leather on all seats, the steering wheel and the shift knob. The $1,990 Premium Package completes the near-luxury experience with a panoramic sunroof, LED headlights and driver assists.
